Is it worth watching ITV?

#Gold #SP500 This share price is looking pretty optimistic for some reason. As technology develops and the internet improves, a surprising phenomena is frequently noticed when our lounge TV is turned on. There’s a little box in the middle of the screen, advising ‘The TV Automatically Turned Off Due To Lack Of Activity”. Nowadays, the lounge big screen tends be used to watch Coronation St (not me), then muted and forgotten, left to wither away like an unwatered potted plant. My wife’s viewing habits have changed, her iPad tending favour unending documentaries on YouTube or other streaming services but most emphatically no longer dependant on satellite TV.

In the interests of full disclosure, she is watching ITV while I’m writing this in the office. An interview with a celebrity Royal Family couple is mandatory viewing in the UK tonight. Presumably the folk involved will launch a ‘Premium Rate Phone Call’ competition for viewers before the show ends, offering the prize of a holiday or car to anyone who paid attention.

 

Despite a personal distrust of such a terrestrial TV company, presumably there are doing something to capture the tablet revolution. Near term, it certainly looks like strength exceeding 122p should propel the share price toward an initial 133p, along with a collision against the downtrend since 2016. It will become utterly crucial for the share price to actually close a session above 131p to allow us to present some quite useful numbers for the longer term.

Closure above 131p creates a scenario, where an initial 173p is expected with secondary, if bettered, at 173p. We fear, given historical behaviour around the 173p level, some stutters shall occur should such a number make itself known. After all, there’s bound to be a bunch of frustrated folk who bought around this level a few years ago, desperately hoping “this” was the time the share price will go up. Invariably, this select gang will bail a share at break even, creating selling pressure while the regain use of their funds.

In the case of ITV, we suspect this shall be an erroneous judgement for the long, long, term, if only on the basis the 4th attempt will be the charm.

Our commentary is in two sections. Immediately below are today’s updated comments. If our commentary remains valid, the share can be found in the bottom section which has a RED heading. Hopefully, this will mean you no longer need to flip back through previous reports. HYPERLINKS DISABLED IN THIS VERSION

Please remember, all prices are mid-price (halfway between the Buy and Sell). When we refer to a price CLOSING above a specific level, we are viewing the point where we can regard a trend as changing. Otherwise, we are simply speculating on near term trading targets. Our website is www.trendsandtargets.com.

UPDATE. We often give an initial and a secondary price. If the initial is exceeded, we still expect it to fall back but the next time the initial is bettered, the price should continue to the secondary. The converse it true with price drops.
